All Frocked Up

Hello Lovely Ladies!

Who is planning a night on the town with your significant other this coming Valentine's Day...?

I would like to share a few "fabulous beauty finds" to help you get frocked up (or should I say..dolled up) for your special evening.

I.  Fancy Faux Lashes~  An absolute "must have."  At least in my book.

There are so many styles to choose from but if you have never used them before... I suggest trying a half  lash first to practice.  I use Ardell 100% human hair.

II. Fancy Fragrance~ My favorite is Miss Dior Cherie by Dior. 



Lovely floral and fruity notes so sweet that it will for sure make his head spin.


III. Fancy Full Lips~ "LOVER" lipstick by Chanel.  The Perfect Red.

My hubby gave me this as gift for Christmas one year...

IV. Fancy Feet~ Fancy up an ol' pair of pumps with these darling shoe fashions by "The Princess Rose."(Like my marketing skills..?he-he)

Vintage Inspired Black Lace Flower Frll Shoe Fashions by The Princess Rose

V. Fancy Frock~ Dust off  the ol' frock that you have hiding in the back of your closet.  It's not everyday that we get a chance to get all fancy and FROCKED up!!(lmfo-laughing my fanny off)


Follow my Inspiration board on Pinterest called, "Beauty Ritual."

Be fancy & fabulous EVERYDAY.

Fancy This

I was first introduced to the brand Naartjie Kids at a local consignment event, Trunk Treasures about two years ago.  I remember purchasing two beautiful tops for my daughter.  To my amazement, even after several washes the garments held their shape and barely faded.  I was hooked.  Once she outgrew them, I bought a few more pieces from the actual store and was floored with the quality once again.

Brief description: Naartjie Kids is a children's clothing company that specializes in playful, vibrant and kid-friendly garments for kids ages 0-10.

Let's back track...

About a little over a week ago, I purchased more gorgeous pieces on their online store.  When I received my package, I was like a kid in a candy shop.  I even pulled my husband aside to show him each garment piece by piece but he was the least bit excited.

With his lack of enthusment, sparked inspiration.  I needed to somehow share "Fabulous Fashion Finds" like these, with other Mommies.  It was in that one moment, "The Fancy Frock" came to life.


Lined meow spot smocked corduroy pants in Creme. 

I adore the smocking on the waist and the ruffled tulle trimmed accents.

Embroidered netting trimmed dreamy giraffe top in Creme. 

The soft, whimsical hues and hint of sparkle makes this top so magical. 

If you think Naartjie Kids may fit your child's lifestyle.  You've got to check them out to believe it.  I am telling you ladies, this brand does not disappoint.  The quality and attention to detail is exquisite.  It literally makes my heart sing.

Define Your Style

Everyone has there own style whether if you know yours or not.  It can come out either in your wardrobe, home interiors or the elements you choose to surround yourself in.  If you still have no idea what it could be. Try to observe what you gravitate to when you shop and ask yourself, "What defines my style?"

I  believe my wardrobe is primarily filled with classic staples.  I am mostly drawn to neutral colored garments but not afraid to play with vibrant colors.  I classify my style as Modern Chic.(I must admit, I LOVE a lot of everything.)  From modern edge looks to extra girly, frilly frocks.

Especially as a stay at home mom on the go, I try to stick to basic silhouettes that work for my body and lifestyle.  I then create different looks by using accessories.

Accessories are my ultimate WEAKNESS.(Hmm...Who would've guessed that? lol)  I can blog all day about them.  Whatever your style may be, remember to have fun with your wardrobe and mix it up!

Now let's get to the good stuff.  These are "Five Fabulous Fashion Finds" I picked up in the past couple of months that I absolutely LOVE and enjoy!  Each piece is a reflection of me. They are all versatile and can transition from season to season.

1) Black Leather Gun Metal Mesh Cross-over Sling that can interchange in to a night time clutch by BCBG Max Azira-$140.00

Oh....when I saw this bag, it was love at first sight.
 I wore it all around the store before I even purchased it.  It was meant to be.

2) Soft Grey Spotted Pattern Light-weight Scarf by Vera Wang from Kohls-$15.00 



Score buy.
I wanted to replace my grey leopard printed scarf (retired) from the previous year.


3) Neutral Fabric Leopard Printed Ballerina Flats by LUXE Steve Madden-$55.00(got them for just under $30!)



So adorable I couldn't leave them at the store.
The best part is they were an additional 30% off and
I got to also use my $10.00 off DSW Rewards!
(I will talk about couponing in another blog.)


4) Grey Sparkle Beaded Hoops by Old Navy-$8.00



I can never pass up a cute pair of earrings.
I am a total earring girl and rarely wear necklaces unless they are extra long.



 5) Amber Tortoise Shell Square Framed 70's Glam Sunglasses by Nina Ricci-Birthday Gift..Yippee



I am not much of a brand/label snob when it comes to clothing
but I do indulge in designer sunglasses and handbags.


Hope you enjoyed my Five~Fabulous Fashion Finds!
